Drama 16 Stage Lighting

1. February 25, 2018 – 4:34pm – Adams Playhouse
2. I am standing in the theatre behind the Two Gentleman of Verona set. As I sitting there in mostly darkness, a green light came on. The light was to my right. Its primary job was to light the stage, however some of it spilled onto backstage. The backpack as well as a cord as right in front of me and the green light was casted upon them.
3. I was so intrigued by the beauty. You would not think that a backpack laying on the floor or a cord wrapped around the banister could be something that would really attract someone’s attention. But something about the way the green light lit them up almost looked like it was fake. There was a futuristic mood that the light created and I could not stop looking at the cord and backpack until the light faded out.

A woman is standing in the distance. She is standing on one leg with the other bent behind her. One of her arms is resting against the wall, while the other creates a circular shape above her head. All of her surroundings are covered by darkness. There is one white light that hangs above her head though. The light is projected onto certain aspects of the woman’s body. The light highlights a side of her face, a part of her chest, her fingers, and the top of her bent leg. The light also is projected onto the black floor in front of the female. This picture is interesting because it is so dark, yet highlights specific shapes. The dancer in the distance looks mysterious because you can’t tell what she really looks like, and it makes it more intriguing the more you look at it.
